And he made him a Mercedes in 3 I didn't mind him as a satellite in 2 that made perfect sense being a communications officer. But, him and Shockwave sucked in the movies
I spend the majority of this review praising how awesome this figure is and while they found a very clever way to do it, he still turns into a box like his G1 self, are you really gonna dispute that? I pay much reverence to the figures in my collection (again, all the praise I gave this toy), I just try to make the reviews entertaining and I do it the way I want, not the way others want. You're entitled to your opinion, but it is not at all true. My best :)
This is definitely my favorite Transformers figure of all time with all the gimicks and hidden features it has, and the fact that they went out of their way to include Soundwave's chest readings and cassete case is something they totally didn't have to do but still did, which shows how much they care about making quality figures that don't just transform and hold guns.
As a proud Gen-X'er who loved his Transformers during the 80's, I must say that I'm really impressed both with the advanced articulation of the upgraded Soundwave and Lazer Beak as well as the attention to detail.
Dude it actually looks like Soundwave, and Lazerbeak! I'll always love the original G1 models, but the construction, and detail on the masterpieces is incredible. 2 thumbs up!
I got the US Toys R Us release almost 10 years ago and JUST NOW finding out about the storage in the feet! I've resumed collecting Masterpieces and your videos are a fantastic resource. Thank you!
@@Colin_ I wasn't lucky enough to see one on their shelf. I checked 2 stores a couple days a week for a month. After seeing nothing but shelf tags I got one off Ebay. I paid $180.
1 thing i absolutely adore with that grid stuff is that it hides whatever tape soundwave has in storage, so the effect is just like in the cartoon, really sweet.
I really enjoyed watching your review of one of the most iconic Transformers. Also, enjoyed your enthusiasm and the ending of this video was hilarious. Thank you for taking the time to post this video and looking forward to watching your other videos. I'm Definitely getting Sounwave this Masterpiece edition.
Just bought this guy along with the tapes Corp and I can’t wait till they arrive. Had the G1 toy as a kid and he was hands down my favourite then. This one just looks superb.
Emgo, love the review, just placed my order after watching this. Money well spent. Love the clip at the end. Was thinking when Prime asked "is that all he can do?" You were going to flip out the camera on Lazerbeaks head, but then you had him kill mini prime. Well played good sir. Well played.
Watching in December 2020 (almost 2021) and this is still the definitive Soundwave figure. Best Soundwave on the planet, regardless of line. It's so good that I'm still unsure if I'm going to buy Acoustic Wave (if Fanstoys ever releases him).
I would bet that if cassette tapes were still popular Takara would have found a way eventually to make a working transformable Soundwave that could actually play cassettes.
Finally, the manufacture has done excellent job on making the robot resemble from the 80's cartoon. The original transformer toy was good, but no where near the details and the looks like this. Wow!
Ryan Overcash in one episode were Megatron is damaged, sound wave goes to help him, because he was using his hands, he defended them with his shoulder cannon
I laughed so hard when you said they added a headphone jack, "they added a headphone jack, you can actually plug in a headphone jack! ....grant it you can't actually listen to anything!"... LMAO I brag about these masterpiece Transformers all the time, the Engineering is amazing! The way Transformers should of been made to begin with back in the 80's! Just incredible stuff they did with these! I own two so far, Rachet and Prowl. I also own the 25th annv. Prime. Someone else made that, but very good piece fas as engineering, especially the hands. Nice job on review, detailed, and you talk about much as possible no matter what it is. I can't wait to add this Soundwave to my collection, near perfect! They should of made it play as an mp3, real tape player, or at least a digital sound file with button that plays the tunes he played when disquised as a tape player. After all, they were meant to be,.. Robots in Disguised! ..and not so well known to Earth populations like in the movies. Nice clip at the end! lol
Awesome review as always Emgo. Love the cut-away gags, always worth waiting for. Soundwave is a awesome masterpiece figure, a little pricey though. Keep up the good work!
Thank Primus this is getting a US release! I'm a HUGE Soundwave fan but I can't do 200 on this guy... and 320 if you count all his minions! Even with the US coming out this summer... this is SOOO tempting. Great review! And BTW... if you count the Heroes of Cyberton line, Soundwave has a Legends-sized action figure of himself too... XD
Bro. Not this again. Rarely any cats pay attention to you, they just come out to be fed. Dogs, on the other hand, love u no matter the situation. They actually want to play with you!!!!! Now pls stop we all want peace!!!!!
+emgo316 can you answer me,please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! can you recommend me a website to order this guy from he is sold out on BBTS,tfsource and robot kingdom and he is too expensive on amazon and i don't live in the USA to order him from ebay
The blockyness of the figure makes it more easy to make more alternative modes, i make: a base mode, a train mode, a gun/crossbow mode, a sort of scorpion mode, and of course the classic cybertronian streetlight, making him a sort of SevenChanger. Also, the minicons can have alternatives modes to complement all the other modes of Soundwave, like a tank and airship modes to Rumble and Frenzy, a turret and axe mode to Ratpack, a car and crossbow mode to Ravage, and manny more.
Thanks for this review Emgo, I'm getting mine this year, 3rd reissue I think. Finally! I've rewatch end this review more than any other one you have done I think. Thanks for what you do!
just watched this again to transform him from cassette mode to robot mode, after it has been in disguise for maybe 5 years or so on the shelf lol. Such a great figure
I really like the way he scales well against the other Masterpiece figures (Megatron excluded), and that Laserbeak is insanely well made. I guess I should start saving my pennies. :)
Hey emgo that accessory that can replace Soundwave's hand, I believe it can plug into the port under the volume control that looks like an imbedded 2x1 LEGO brick. i believe it's to represent how Soundwave would download and upload intel on the Autobots like in the G1 show.
Also EmGo you could try coloring the energon cube with a pink marker (non permanent of course) to simulate an energon cube and wash it off when your done :)
Fun fact, G1 microcassettes also fit in masterpeice microcassette cases, as this is what I did when I got a used G1 blaster figure with microcassettes!
I actually think G1 did it better by turning the weapons into batteries and not showing any robot parts in the alt form. I do love the robot mode though but they should have also given him the lamp post alt form. The pink cassette boxes can also be thin energon cubes
Loved this review Emgo. I have MP 13B Soundblaster with RatBat and I got the cassette sets for it too. The only one I'm missing is lazerbeak. It is an amazing figure I agree. So hopefully I will get Soundwave eventually to complete the set. Ravage's engineering in the masterpiece cassette version is even more crazy than buzzsaw/lazerbeak's.
Emgo has the BEST TOY CHANNEL ON TH-cam IMO, sounwave and shockwave are two of my favorite. So much that i just bought the giant GAME STOP EXCUSIVE SOUND WAVE HELMET! im a serious TRANSFORMERS FAN AND COLLECTOR PALM IN YO FACE!😂
Emgo, that "sensor thing" that you leave plugged into his rear might have been a dual purpose item. My memory is hazy, but I think Soundwave could use it to both eavesdrop at long distance, like the CIA, and broadcast frequencies directly at a single target or target area.
You forgot the most important detail. Soundwave is actually articulated enough that he can press his own Eject button. That alone is worth the price.
Agreed!
I know i am7 years late but he shows it on the thumbnail lol
@Logan Fritchlee yea
Agreed

iMa MiLiTaRy DrOnE!!!!!!!??!!!?
Just watched this video 9 years later. Bought this guy last year and never bothered transforming him until now. Great Soundwave to be honest.
Automatically my favorite masterpiece figure because it's soundwave.
Me too my friend
Titanfreak 29 te
I
Titanfreak 29 is bomb in your face
Favs transformer of all!😜
Soundwave has ALWAYS been one of the COOLEST Decepticons in my opinion :D
I can't believe Michael Bay didn't give sound wave his EPIC robot voice in movies 2 and 3. Great review :D
Well at least he still had Frank Welker as Soundwave's voice, but yeah true...
Was a bad ass voice tho
Lee Morris i think sound wave is soundwave in 1 word...
Lee Morris Yeah I admit,as a diehard Bayformers fan,he could’ve did that better.
And he made him a Mercedes in 3 I didn't mind him as a satellite in 2 that made perfect sense being a communications officer. But, him and Shockwave sucked in the movies

You forgot to show him pushing the eject button
King Starscream move over, Soundwave is superior!
Emgo you should show Soundwave holding Megatron's gun mode he comes with.
Emgo please reply there is a new masterpiece megatron.
Also please reply i got this dude ko.
This is definitely my favorite Transformers figure of all time with all the gimicks and hidden features it has, and the fact that they went out of their way to include Soundwave's chest readings and cassete case is something they totally didn't have to do but still did, which shows how much they care about making quality figures that don't just transform and hold guns.
I love how he and bucket head defied physics and would shrink and grow as they tranform
Chronicler of The Shadows idk maybe ITS BECAUSE THEYRE TRANSFORMERS(this was a joke btw )
Chronicler of The Shadows Soundwave superior, physics inferior.
SW: BUCKETHEAD???!!!
OP: HA!!!
ik was making a character joke
All I can say is wow. That is by far the best looking Masterpiece Transformer out of all of them.
I dunno, MP10 Looks preaty good too. Although Lazerbeak is amazing. Why do they call him condor?
Christoph Nuzzo I think masterpiece rodimus is the best because you can't turn hot rod into rodimus prime and all the accessorys
Or a copyright issue.
It's his Japanese name
Its the Japan name. Laserbeak was called Condor and Ravage was called Jaguar in Japan. I much prefer the worldwide names of Laserbeak and Ravage
Smiling the whole time while watching this. This figure’s just so awesome. Such a well designed character in general, everyone love’s Soundwave.
Soundwave is my fav. I love the way he talked in the old cartoon
Same!
XshakeninjaX affirmed soundwave superior bumblebee inferior
XshakeninjaX same
Who are you calling inferior?! Nobody would follow an uncharismatic bore like you! Hey! Nobody calls Soundwave uncrazimatic!
XshakeninjaX Soundwave status for 33 years: Superior
Me when I see MP soundwave: My life is complete. Take me now.
Me when I see MP Megatron: My life is over. Take me now.
😂😂😂
This figure is amazing. almost 10 years have passed, and it still is a beautiful work of art.
Thank you mister Emgo for introducing me to Masterpiece Transformers! Just got my Soundwave and "Condor" today. Thank you again.
"He is superior"
*everyone laughs while ascending into another dimension*
As a proud Gen-X'er who loved his Transformers during the 80's, I must say that I'm really impressed both with the advanced articulation of the upgraded Soundwave and Lazer Beak as well as the attention to detail.
I know that. I refer to him as a cassette player in the review, I'm just reffering to the overall shape he becomes in alt mode
Dude it actually looks like Soundwave, and Lazerbeak! I'll always love the original G1 models, but the construction, and detail on the masterpieces is incredible. 2 thumbs up!
I got the US Toys R Us release almost 10 years ago and JUST NOW finding out about the storage in the feet! I've resumed collecting Masterpieces and your videos are a fantastic resource. Thank you!
I had the option to get this from Toys R Us back when it first came out but i chose not to due to the hefty price tag. I've regretted it ever since.
@@Colin_ I wasn't lucky enough to see one on their shelf. I checked 2 stores a couple days a week for a month. After seeing nothing but shelf tags I got one off Ebay. I paid $180.

eight years ago this came out and i still love this masterpiece
edit: i meant to say masterpiece review
This is my favorite TF ever! I can't wait till he's back in Stock!!
Just bought this guy along with the tapes Corp and I can’t wait till they arrive. Had the G1 toy as a kid and he was hands down my favourite then. This one just looks superb.
4:40
"because he is precious, oh so precious!"
Soundwave is one of my top 3 favorite deceptacons. The other two are g1 Megatron and Shockwave
This can totally work as a bumblebee movie design,
Oh wait, IT DID!!!!
Worked for shockwave too
Almost as if bay was full of shit
Emgo, love the review, just placed my order after watching this. Money well spent. Love the clip at the end. Was thinking when Prime asked "is that all he can do?" You were going to flip out the camera on Lazerbeaks head, but then you had him kill mini prime. Well played good sir. Well played.

Always puts a lizard in my pants when someone calls Rumble Frenzy or vice versa.
That’s right. The G1 toy packaging is king.
I would bet that if cassette tapes were still popular Takara would have found a way eventually to make a working transformable Soundwave that could actually play cassettes.
Finally, the manufacture has done excellent job on making the robot resemble from the 80's cartoon. The original transformer toy was good, but no where near the details and the looks like this. Wow!
In g1 has soundwave ever actually shot his shoulder cannon
Ryan Overcash in one episode were Megatron is damaged, sound wave goes to help him, because he was using his hands, he defended them with his shoulder cannon
Mylogic 15 I used to tell my classmates Soundwave never uses his shoulder cannon because it's so powerful it can blow up the earth.
And Optimus was no match..!!
CelloMachachillo Lol.
That little silver piece is Soundwave's energon detector. It was in season one. Episode-fire on the mountain.
I laughed so hard when you said they added a headphone jack, "they added a headphone jack, you can actually plug in a headphone jack! ....grant it you can't actually listen to anything!"...

Awesome review as always Emgo. Love the cut-away gags, always worth waiting for. Soundwave is a awesome masterpiece figure, a little pricey though. Keep up the good work!
6:55 Masterpiece Soundblaster does the opposite, all 3 tapes fly out unintentionally in one shot!
Soundwave was actually my first Transformer when I was a kid, and I played the hell out of him.
Same. I broke down and saved up for this figure. It’s a heck of a lot of fun!
still watching in 2020 ?
Yes
Qoviz heLLo.
Yes
Yup.
No sorry
The reason I love the masterpiece line is all the little throwbacks to the original cartoon. That, and, you know. Posable Soundwave.
im 10 years old and now I want to buy this AMAZING g1 soundwave and I love g1 transformers
Emgo, the sensor accessory was used in the episode key to vector sigma part 1. soundwave used it to locate the key under the rubble i believe.
Laserbeak: *shoots the action figure*
5 Minutes Later...
Optimus Prime: The cybertronian war begins!
xD
Lol
30:27 the little prime that the masterpiece prime is holding. I have that toy along with it’s version of bumblebee...
soundwave looks more like a hero than a villain 😂
Thank Primus this is getting a US release! I'm a HUGE Soundwave fan but I can't do 200 on this guy... and 320 if you count all his minions! Even with the US coming out this summer... this is SOOO tempting.
Great review! And BTW... if you count the Heroes of Cyberton line, Soundwave has a Legends-sized action figure of himself too... XD
Soundwave superior. Autobots inferior.
Cats superior. Cat haters inferior.
Ravage: Eject Operation: Cat Superiority
Affirmative
Oh dear God how many soumdwaves are there...
@@M0306D I'm the real soundwave
Bro. Not this again. Rarely any cats pay attention to you, they just come out to be fed. Dogs, on the other hand, love u no matter the situation. They actually want to play with you!!!!! Now pls stop we all want peace!!!!!
This might be the oldest, Greatest video I have ever seen.
He should do a section were he gets all his sound waves and calls it the sound wave semester
the little silver scanner accesory can plug into the 2 peg port on his side, and attach to Rumble/Frenzy's hammers.
Duuuuuuuuu
can you make a video for masterpiece sun storm please
+Ethan White I don't have one and don't really have any interest in him
+emgo316 were is Big Bad Toy store
+emgo316 can you answer me,please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
can you recommend me a website to order this guy from
he is sold out on BBTS,tfsource and robot kingdom and he is too expensive on amazon and i don't live in the USA to order him from ebay
+Abdelrahman Ahmed I don't know. Everything you mentioned is what I would have suggested. Maybe try the buy/sell/trade thread on tfw2005.com
emgo316 okay,thank you!
the casette case does look like and energon cube, cuz if you notice after they fill em the compress them down so it's easily transportable
Hey man, que gran vídeo , felicitaciones

Tom White Survivor123 any clue when the Takara reissue might be?
Where did you get the optimus prime action figure
Wow first time watching this again after a long year brings back memories.

-Soundwave
just watched this again to transform him from cassette mode to robot mode, after it has been in disguise for maybe 5 years or so on the shelf lol. Such a great figure
None that I've seen so far
Thanks for that link with all the paper cutouts i have a soundwave ordered and just waiting for the delivery to arrive
seems a lot more work to transform then the classic one.
I really like the way he scales well against the other Masterpiece figures (Megatron excluded), and that Laserbeak is insanely well made. I guess I should start saving my pennies. :)
How long before they use some microtech to make this actually play music?
They have. It's crazy expensive though
I want it SOOOOO much.
+KwableGuy where abouts to you get that from? #soundwave that plays music
+Matty Kennedy look on bigbadtoystore.com for it
Bacause I don't have any cassettes nor care to get any unless I can use them for such a nerdy demonstration as playing music with a transformer
In the cutout gag you can see emgo's hand through the reflection in Soundwave's chestpiece.
this is the best toy ever i have it
I think the pink plastic cassette case may be a nod to the original energon cubes that Soundwave "loaded" in the G1 cartoon.
0:48 sound wave has eyes
My Chinese Knock Off already had the guns it, never knew about that or the Laserbeak Camera!! Thanks!!
fuck!i want the whole series!!!
asdrubael1985 too expensive uou need like $1000000
That laserbeak is on the spot! EXCELLENTLY ENGINEERED
"Frenzy, eject"

"Frenzy, eject dammit!"

I’ve came back seven years later to tell you your awesome
I love soundwave
Hey emgo that accessory that can replace Soundwave's hand, I believe it can plug into the port under the volume control that looks like an imbedded 2x1 LEGO brick. i believe it's to represent how Soundwave would download and upload intel on the Autobots like in the G1 show.
My life ain't complete until I get this toy 😂😂😂😂😂😂

He is a SOUND box
Also EmGo you could try coloring the energon cube with a pink marker (non permanent of course) to simulate an energon cube and wash it off when your done :)
Do I forget? I don't remember.
Yes then lol

Logan Palmer wise bird XD
Logan Palmer lol
"Caw" ~ Buzzsaw, lol
"LASERBEAK, RETURN" ~Soundwave
Fun fact, G1 microcassettes also fit in masterpeice microcassette cases, as this is what I did when I got a used G1 blaster figure with microcassettes!
SOUNDWAVE-KUN YES
They're sold out and overpriced
Not anymore
for what they worth is a good price for them they worth atleast $300.00
You can get one from ebay for £40.00
poopy pidgeon224 where
I got a used one for 60 dollars and it's still in perfectly good shape.
i bought this and can’t wait for it to arrive
I actually think G1 did it better by turning the weapons into batteries and not showing any robot parts in the alt form. I do love the robot mode though but they should have also given him the lamp post alt form. The pink cassette boxes can also be thin energon cubes
Holy $#!÷ lazerbeak is crazy on how they made him
Incredible figure, much more detailed that the original! Very awesome!
Loved this review Emgo. I have MP 13B Soundblaster with RatBat and I got the cassette sets for it too. The only one I'm missing is lazerbeak. It is an amazing figure I agree. So hopefully I will get Soundwave eventually to complete the set. Ravage's engineering in the masterpiece cassette version is even more crazy than buzzsaw/lazerbeak's.
Emgo has the BEST TOY CHANNEL ON TH-cam IMO, sounwave and shockwave are two of my favorite. So much that i just bought the giant GAME STOP EXCUSIVE SOUND WAVE HELMET! im a serious TRANSFORMERS FAN AND COLLECTOR PALM IN YO FACE!😂
Emgo, that "sensor thing" that you leave plugged into his rear might have been a dual purpose item. My memory is hazy, but I think Soundwave could use it to both eavesdrop at long distance, like the CIA, and broadcast frequencies directly at a single target or target area.
